2025 Hiroshima Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Hiroshima's famous scenic spot #ShockedEden is one of the 100 selected historical parks in Japan. The meaning of "ShockedEden" should be that the four seasons of Hiroshima are all condensed in this strolling pond garden. There are cherry blossoms in spring, fresh green in summer, and red leaves in autumn. When I visited, it happened to be the maple season. The small bridges and flowing water in the garden were dyed a deep red, which was quite charming. Shukkeien was built in 1620 by Asano Nagamori, the first lord of Hiroshima, but was completely destroyed when Hiroshima was bombed by an atomic bomb in 1945. It took many years of reconstruction to restore its original appearance. Shukkei-en is surrounded by high-rise buildings on all sides, giving it a sense of tranquility like an urban oasis in the concrete jungle, miniaturizing the Zen and poetic atmosphere of a Japanese garden. Next to it is the Hiroshima Prefectural Museum of Art and Hiroshima Castle Park, making it a great place to take a stroll along the way and appreciate the charming charm of Hiroshima. #HiroshimaTravel #Shookeien

A famous landmark in Hiroshima, the Atomic Bomb Dome is a remnant of the atomic bombing during World War II. At the moment of the explosion, the central dome was not completely destroyed, and parts of the concrete skeleton and outer walls remained intact, making it one of the few buildings that did not collapse under the impact of the blast. Seeing it up close is quite shocking! Across the river is the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, which features the Children's Peace Monument, the Peace Clock Tower, the Peace Bell, the Peace Fountain, the Flame of Peace, the Gates of Peace, and the Cenotaph for the A-bomb Victims. There are also three museums: the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, the Atomic Bomb Artifacts Exhibition Hall, and the Hiroshima National Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb Victims. Like Nagasaki, the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Site and Memorial Museum are filled with historical scars. Viewing the historical documents and photographs inside the museum evokes a sense of sorrow and makes one reflect on the cruelty of war.

Famous cities in Japan often have historical castles, and Hiroshima's representative castle is naturally Hiroshima Castle. Although it was destroyed by the atomic bomb during World War II, it was fortunately rebuilt and is now listed among Japan's top 100 castles. Its most distinctive feature is its jet-black structure, resembling a black carp, hence it is also known as the 'Carp Castle.' Getting to Hiroshima Castle is quite convenient. You can take the tram to Shukkeien-mae or Kamiya-cho, and it's just a ten-minute walk from there. Hiroshima Castle is a typical flatland castle built by Mōri Terumoto, one of the five elders close to Toyotomi Hideyoshi. At that time, its scale was comparable to Osaka Castle. Admission requires a ticket, which costs ¥370 for adults, making it quite affordable. The castle is divided into four floors, each serving as an exhibition room, with the top floor being the observation deck, offering a panoramic view of Hiroshima City. Surrounding the castle is Central Park, and there is also a Gokoku Shrine nearby that you can visit.

🎏A 2-day trip to Hiroshima can be arranged like this: Day 1 Cafe - Atomic Bomb Dome - Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park - Shopping in Kamiyacho Day 2 Hiroshima Castle - Miyajima Island, Itsukushima Shrine ⛩️🌊 - When you visit Hiroshima, a must-see destination is 📍Miyajima Island One of Japan's three most scenic views, it's a World Heritage Site. Miyajima Island itself has a mysterious and unique beauty. 🕊 The Edo-era style is completely preserved. The ⛩️Itsukushima Shrine, floating on the water, is magnificent! Behind the shrine is the towering Mount Misen. ⛰️ The island's indigenous inhabitants, 🦌deer!!!, are everywhere. They are very docile and cute, making it easy to get a photo with them. 📷 (They're gentler than the deer in Nara. 🤭) At low tide, walk to the bottom of the torii gate for a close-up view and photo opportunity (it's 16 meters tall!). Embrace the Seto Inland Sea breeze. 🌊 (Check the tide times at the station. 🚉) - 🦪There are many snacks on the island that you can enjoy as you walk around. Grilled oysters, oyster curry bread, and fried momiji manjū are all popular snacks. 🍱 Fujitaya Miyajima's specialty, "Anago" (conger eel) ¥3,000 for a serving of wild eel rice - 🛳️Transportation: From JR Hiroshima Station to JR Miyajimaguchi Station, walk to the ferry terminal and take the ferry (recommended! The scenery from the boat is beautiful!).

#2月好去地方2025 Recently, the "Seto Inland Sea Art Festival", which is held every three years, is about to start, making Shodoshima popular again, and Shikoku island hopping is on the rise! Even if there is no art festival, a one-day slow tour of Shodoshima is highly recommended. Staying on the island for a night will allow you to experience the leisurely pace of life. #Shodoshima Olive Park The classic scene from Hayao Miyazaki's movie "Kiki's Delivery Service", the white windmill and the witch's broom, most tourists come here to check in and take photos. In fact, Shodoshima was the first place in Japan to plant olive trees. The Olive Park mainly displays the history of olive trees and their planting, and is free to visit. Against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds, it looks very European coastal. #寒霞渓 Known as one of the three most beautiful valleys in Japan, you can take a double-section cable car to the observation deck to see the beautiful scenery of Shodoshima's mountains and seas, including the Seto Inland Sea, Mikasa Mountain, Shibodō, the Eight Views in the Sato and the Twelve Views in the Omote. In fact, Hanxia Creek is also a good hiking trail, especially in autumn when the red leaves are in season, it is even more beautiful when you hike to the top. #２４の瞳影画村 The movie "２４の眼" was filmed on Shodoshima in the early Showa era. The scenes built during the filming include residential buildings, wooden school buildings, and village alleys in the streets. It faithfully reproduces the scenes of the early Showa era, just like walking into a time tunnel. The movie depicts the touching stories between teachers and students on the Shodoshima campus. Whether you have seen the movie or not, it is highly recommended to visit. Tickets are ¥790. #Shodoshima Angel Road A famous natural attraction on Shodoshima Island. At low tide during sunrise and sunset, a 500-meter-long thin white sandbar trail slowly emerges, spanning to Bentenjima on the other side. Walking along Angel Road at dusk is quite romantic and a very famous check-in spot. Shodoshima is a great place for a slow and relaxing life. It is recommended that you do not rush to visit and leave. It is best to stay on the island for one night to enjoy the quiet and charming moments of Shodoshima. #ShikokuTravel #Shodoshima #Seto Inland Sea

Hiroshima, a town of slopes, sea, and cats 🐱 Unfortunately, since I visited in the middle of summer, I didn't see any cats during the day, but I heard there are many during cooler seasons 💕 My favorite town with a view of the sea. I spent about 4 hours taking the Senkoji Mountain Ropeway to the top, visiting Senkoji Temple, and walking down while taking photos 😊 (with a cafe break in between ☕️) On a sunny summer day, the view of the sea in the distance while descending the slopes and stairs was really wonderful ☺️ The view from the ropeway is in the 4th photo. The 5th photo is towards the Onomichi City Museum of Art 📸 The Seto Inland Sea could be seen far into the distance, and it was a spectacular view 🥹 If you want to see the cats, it might be better to visit during the cooler seasons 😊

Hiroshima: A City of Timeless Charm Hiroshima is a city that blends historical reflection with modern prosperity, like a multifaceted gem that exudes diverse and captivating charm. As you step onto this land, a series of exciting journeys unfold before your eyes. The Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is the eye of Hiroshima's history, gazing at past pain. As you step inside, a heavy atmosphere envelops you. The Atomic Bomb Dome, with its incomplete structure, silently tells the cruelty of war. Inside the museum, yellowed documents, damaged clothing, and survivors' tearful memories vividly present that dark history. People stand in silence, feeling the preciousness of peace and drawing strength to protect it. Moving to Itsukushima Shrine feels like stepping into a fairyland. As one of Japan's three scenic spots, its beauty is breathtaking. At high tide, the sea gently surrounds the shrine, making it appear like a mysterious palace floating on the blue sea. The vermilion buildings contrast with the shimmering sea and the clear sky, creating a picturesque scene. As you stroll along the winding paths, the sea breeze gently caresses your cheeks, bringing the fresh scent of the ocean. The lively deer on Miyajima Island add endless vitality to the tranquil island, sometimes grazing leisurely on the grass, sometimes affectionately approaching tourists, playfully nudging them with their wet noses. Hiroshima's cuisine is not to be missed. Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki is a local culinary masterpiece, skillfully combining a variety of ingredients and carefully cooking them on a teppan grill. The tender eggs, refreshing vegetables, and savory meats, paired with a special sauce, create a mouthful of happiness. Fresh and plump Hiroshima oysters are also a must-try delicacy. Whether grilled over charcoal, releasing a rich aroma at high temperatures, or simply steamed to retain their original flavor, the tender texture dances on your taste buds, showcasing the ocean's delicious gifts. Shopping in Hiroshima is also a great pleasure. The bustling shopping streets are lively, with a dazzling array of goods. Fashionable brand stores display trendy clothing, while traditional craft shops offer exquisite washi paper and rustic ceramics, embodying Japan's traditional culture. Here, you can keep up with fashion trends and take home culturally rich souvenirs. As night falls, Hiroshima reveals a different kind of vitality. The izakayas along the streets are brightly lit, with people sitting together, sharing laughter, food, and stories. In the bustling night markets, the aroma of local snacks fills the air, and the bustling crowds immerse themselves in this lively atmosphere. Hiroshima, with its unique charm, creates an unforgettable journey for visitors.

Introducing a model route for enjoying Hiroshima Prefecture in one day! First, learn about history at the Atomic Bomb Dome and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. It is our duty to continue learning from the past so that we do not repeat the same mistakes. I also felt a lot. After that, we went to Miyajima! I took the ferry that departs from near the Atomic Bomb Dome to Miyajima◎ We mainly visited Itsukushima Shrine, but also other places. The shrines and temples were beautiful and mesmerizing. It's really fun to stroll around, so I recommend setting a time and going around freely! The conger eel rice was delicious, so be sure to try it◎ Finally, okonomiyaki! Let's enjoy Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki! #domestictraveltrip

#magicalxmastrip In the centre of Hiroshima City, including Heiwa-dori Street, the light-up was developed with the theme of "Fairtale Land". Multiple zones are set up by theme in the north-south green area of Heiwa Boulevard, and tasteful illuminations are carried out at each spot. In addition to opening a "Sweets Cafe" where you can enjoy warm food and drinks this year, we will also set up a new "Sake Sales Booth on the Magnetic Road Island" to convey the charm of Hiroshima through sake, one of Hiroshima's specialties.

Hiroshima, Japan, has been a must-visit city on my “travel list,” for me as a liberal arts student who enjoys reading about the modern history of the world. In addition to experiencing the shock of World War II through the Hiroshima World Heritage Atomic Bomb Dome and the Peace Memorial Archives, this trip also learned more about the local post-disaster development. In fact, if Hiroshima did not experience the baptism of the atomic bomb, I believe it is just a small county, including 150 islands in the Seto Inland Sea, of which "Japan's three scenic spots" Miyajima is a must-visit place, the World Heritage Hiroshima Shrine "Aquatic Torii" is really grand and amazing; In addition, to count the most memorable, of course, there is a super delicious Hiroshima oyster lunch on Miyajima, now just looking at the photos is quite reminiscent. # Sign up for December hotel sleeper #JapanTravel #Japan Travelogue #Hiroshima

The last stop of the Setouchi trip came to [Hiroshima]. The Seto Inland Sea surrounds the surrounding area. The blue water and dotted islands form a picturesque island scenery. Miyajima is the jewel among them. Itsukushima Shrine is like a fairyland on the sea, floating on the blue waves at high tide. 🌟【itsukushima Shrine: a sacred wonder on the sea】 When you come to Hiroshima, you must go to Itsukushima Shrine. First, head to Miyajimaguchi Pier, where you can choose to take a ferry to Itsukushima. The ferry sails on the rippling Seto Inland Sea, and the sea breeze caresses your face, bringing you the slightest coolness and freshness. You can enjoy the beautiful sea view along the way, with the blue sky and blue water connecting in the distance, and seabirds circling and soaring in the sky, as if guiding travelers. In about 10 minutes, we arrived at Itsukushima. As soon as you set foot on this island full of mystery and history, Itsukushima Shrine comes into view. This shrine is a miraculous example of the fusion of architecture and nature! It is cleverly located on the sea. When the tide goes out, a Shinto will be revealed. People can walk slowly towards the shrine along this Shinto. Every step seems to be crossing a long river of time and having a spiritual dialogue with the ancient gods. When the tide is high, the shrine seems to be floating gracefully on the water. The iconic vermilion building is breathtakingly beautiful against the blue sea and sky. The bright red color is intertwined with the surrounding blue sea water and emerald green trees, forming a picturesque and beautiful scenery. The large torii gate in the shrine is even more famous. It stands majestically in the sea. It has withstood the temper of the years and the ruthless beating of the waves day after day and year after year, but it remains solemn and solemn, making people feel awe. Here, we are also lucky enough to encounter the free and playful deer. They are like agile elves, jumping around in every corner of the shrine, either looking for food leisurely or playfully interacting with tourists. Their agile figures add to the otherwise solemn and solemn place. The sacred place adds a touch of liveliness and vitality, making the whole picture more harmonious and beautiful. 🍱【Yuhao Village: A happy paradise of delicious food】 In the evening, we headed straight to Okomura, the place where Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki was first introduced! 23 restaurants each have their own characteristics, full of Japanese Teppanyaki atmosphere 🥢 Order a Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki and watch the chef carefully make it on the iron plate, including pancakes, shredded cabbage, various meats, fried noodles, and eggs Perfectly blended with the special sauce, take one bite and the multi-layered taste blooms on the tip of your tongue, making you feel overflowing with happiness! Don’t miss the Monja Yaki and Gyutama Soba, each of which has a unique taste of Hiroshima.

[Hiroshima] Staying at a hotel used for the G7 Summit Hotel name: Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima The entrance is impressive (^^) The windows in the rooms are large, so you can see the night view on a large screen. The hotel is spacious and has a wide selection of convenience store items, and they also sell souvenirs. There are many elevators, so it wasn't crowded! There is a large public bath, but it is not included in the hotel accommodation fee and you will need to pay separately, so be careful about this! (^^) The large public bath also had an open-air bath, which was nice. #AccommodationTravelRecord #100TravelStyle #Hiroshima #HiroshimaTrip

The Hiroshima Peace Memorial, also known as the Atomic Bomb Dome, stands as a symbol of the desire for world peace, despite being partially destroyed by the atomic bomb during World War II. Located near the hypocenter of the explosion, the skeletal remains of the building serve as a poignant reminder of the horrors of war and the importance of peace. After the war, the strong will of the local people led to its preservation, and in 1996, it was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. When visiting Hiroshima, many tourists come to see the Dome and offer silent prayers at the Peace Memorial Park. Reflecting on history and connecting peace to the future, it is important to cherish such places.

Hiroshima Castle, built in 1589 by the warlord Mōri Terumoto, stands as a symbol of Hiroshima City. Also known as 'Rijō' or 'Carp Castle,' the name comes from the carp swimming in its moat. The castle once boasted a magnificent main keep, which was tragically destroyed by the atomic bomb in 1945. In 1958, Hiroshima Castle was reconstructed and now serves as a history museum open to the public. From the main keep, visitors can enjoy a panoramic view of Hiroshima City.

We started our journey from Okayama, driving first to Kojima, which takes about 30 minutes. Then, we crossed the Seto Ohashi Bridge into Shikoku, enjoying the beautiful views of the Seto Inland Sea along the way. We continued driving to Oboke in Tokushima Prefecture, a journey of about 2 hours. The entire trip is filled with beautiful natural scenery and rich cultural experiences, making it an unforgettable road trip. 1. Introduction to Okayama Okayama is located in the western part of Honshu, Japan. It is a city rich in history and culture, home to the famous Okayama Castle and Korakuen Garden, one of Japan's three great gardens. Okayama is also the hometown of Momotaro, a legendary hero whose story attracts many visitors. 2. Introduction to Kojima Kojima is a district in Okayama City, known for producing high-quality jeans and is called the 'Denim Capital of Japan.' There are many jeans factories and shops here where visitors can tour the production process and purchase unique denim products. Additionally, Kojima is the starting point of the Seto Ohashi Bridge, which connects Honshu and Shikoku, offering magnificent views. 3. Scenery of the Seto Inland Sea Driving across the Seto Ohashi Bridge, you will enter the beautiful Seto Inland Sea area. The sea views here are breathtaking, dotted with countless small islands and clear waters. Along the way, you can stop to enjoy the scenery or take a ferry to visit some islands, such as Naoshima, known for its modern art museums and outdoor sculptures. 4. Introduction to Oboke Oboke is located in Tokushima Prefecture, Shikoku, and is known for its spectacular gorge scenery. The rocky gorge was carved by the Yoshino River, creating a magnificent natural landscape.

An Unexpected Treasure City Although I missed the Setouchi Triennale which happens every two years, both the city and the island hopping are filled with an artistic atmosphere. Choosing this place as a buffer after returning from America was a wise decision. It helped me reacquaint myself with Asian culture, Asian cuisine, and Asian faces, experiencing the cleanest, most tranquil, and most artisanal side of East Asia. Day 1 Tokyo-Takamatsu An early flight means a long day to enjoy. Kagawa Prefecture is the hometown of Slowpoke, and you can see its presence everywhere. After checking in, I immediately rushed to eat Sanuki Udon. Delicious and healthy! In the evening, I had Japanese pork cutlet rice. Ritsurin Garden is the most famous park in the city. The green gardens are especially precious in the city. You can row a boat or feed the fish. I thought there wasn't much to see in Takamatsu, but I was completely wrong. There are plenty of things to buy! Tamamo Park is by the sea, where you can see the Seto Inland Sea and the passing ships. It's very comfortable. Day 2 Takamatsu-Naoshima I didn't expect so many tourists on Naoshima! Of course, the first stop is Yayoi Kusama's Red Pumpkin, but I think the yellow one looks better. Then I recommend Hiroshi Sugimoto's Time Corridor. The outdoor glass teahouse is so pure, and you can also enjoy traditional Japanese sweets and tea. Then there's the Chichu Art Museum (with works by Monet and Tadao Ando) and finally the Lee Ufan Museum. Besides the seaside, the island is full of art museums. As long as you check the timetable or ride a bike, transportation is not a problem. Art lovers must visit. The slow boat is also very comfortable. In the evening, I found a local izakaya and had grilled chicken thighs (bone-in chicken). Day 3 Takamatsu-Teshima A smaller island with fewer tourists than Naoshima. A fast boat takes half an hour to get there. The Teshima Art Museum (and café) and the Heartbeat Museum are worth checking out. On the last day of the gap season, I chose to record my heartbeat and make it into a CD. There's a strawberry dessert shop on the island with super delicious shaved ice, just a 5-minute walk from the pier. The island is so quiet, it really feels like time stands still. Day 4 Leaving Takamatsu to return home. It was indeed very hot these days, but taking beautiful photos made me very happy. This trip is coming to an end, a million times unwilling to leave.

A famous restaurant in Akasaka that won one star for two consecutive years in the Michelin Guide Tokyo 2019 and 2020 opened in Hiroshima on July 25th!

We arrived in Hiroshima at night and booked a 3-day stay here online in advance. As long as you contact the owner of the hotel room in advance, the room can be unlocked with a password. It is very convenient and no key is needed. The room is very spacious, the entire room area is estimated to be more than 500 square feet. It is the largest hotel I have been to in Japan! The living room is very large and has a sofa bed. There were three of us staying here and the average cost per person per night was less than 300HkD, which is a very good value for money. There is an open kitchen in the living room, which is equipped with all the three essential household appliances and cooking utensils, as well as an electric rice cooker. You don't have to buy rice and can cook it directly in the hotel. When you come back tired from playing outside, there is a Lawson and a cheap convenience store downstairs where you can buy groceries. It is super convenient. The hotel is located 10 minutes away from the nearest JR station by train and can be reached by train from JR Yokogawa Station. The hotel is about 5-8 minutes walk away from Peace Park. 📍Address: 1-2-13 Motokawa-cho, Naka-ku, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan 💞Recommendation reason: Quiet and comfortable Lawson is just downstairs~ #Japan and Korea City Hotel #Hiroshima #Hiroshima Accommodation #Japan Hotel #Family Travel

I visited the Shukkeien Garden in Hiroshima City, Japan! Shukkeien Garden is located near Hiroshima Station, close enough to walk to. Hiroshima is famous for the Atomic Bomb Dome and Peace Memorial Park, but Shukkeien Garden is also one of the representative attractions of Hiroshima. Shukkeien Garden features a central pond with various islands and is composed of diverse themes. There is an admission fee for the garden, which is well-maintained and offers a variety of themes to experience. There are areas with bamboo, a Sakura street that blooms beautifully during cherry blossom season, and the Meigetsutei, making it a well-organized park. The park is so beautiful that brides and grooms come here to take pictures for traditional Japanese weddings. In fact, when I visited, I saw two couples in traditional Japanese attire taking photos. It is popular among Japanese people and also visited by many foreign tourists. A short walk from Shukkeien Garden is Hiroshima Castle, and visiting both places can give you a sense of the beauty and charm of Hiroshima.

A popular tourist spot in Hiroshima, it is easily accessible. You can take the tram from Hiroshima Station and get off at the "Atomic Bomb Museum-mae" stop. It would be a pity not to visit the Atomic Bomb Museum if you come to Hiroshima. As the Peace Memorial Park is vast, it is recommended to wear sports shoes. First, you should visit the Atomic Bomb Museum. The exposed building skeleton and collapsed exterior walls still tell people the horror and cruelty of nuclear bombs. There are about 50 monuments and plaques of various sizes in the park, and cherry trees are planted along the way. This time I went there, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and the gentle breeze was very beautiful. Another highlight of the park is the Peace Memorial Museum. It is strongly recommended to buy tickets in advance. There is a huge queue on site. The museum houses the remains of the victims and the wreckage of the buildings at that time. To be honest, it is a bit shocking. You may feel bad after watching it, because this is a real tragedy that happened on Earth. I hope it can alert people to the importance of peace.
